    Maybe, instead, you're really running out of memory...  You say this is
    happening during a checkpoint; at that time, the server has split into two
    copies and so it using up twice as much memory as usual.  Do you know how much
    swap space is allocated on this machine?  As a first step, maybe you should
    increase it.
